If you breathe the rain
You can smell my tears
When you live the pain
Then you feel my fears
Please close the door
Keeping the World out
Push my mouth to the floor
So I can no longer shout
The window is smashed
Someone had to throw a stone
My spirit has been dashed
It has left me all alone
I know I make no sense
My mind is in a different place
All of this bitter pretence
Has disappeared without a trace
All work with no chance to play
Leaves you going a little bit insane
Clouds are here because the Sun went away
So all you can do now is breathe the rain
You can smell my tears
When you live the pain
Then you feel my fears
Please close the door
Keeping the World out
Push my mouth to the floor
So I can no longer shout
The window is smashed
Someone had to throw a stone
My spirit has been dashed
It has left me all alone
I know I make no sense
My mind is in a different place
All of this bitter pretence
Has disappeared without a trace
All work with no chance to play
Leaves you going a little bit insane
Clouds are here because the Sun went away
So all you can do now is breathe the rain
